New Somerset Council - Local Government Reorganisation
If you are a SWT tenant or leaseholder, you may have already heard about proposals for the reform of local government in Somerset, and will naturally have questions about how these changes might affect you.
From April 2023 Somerset’s five councils will be replaced by a single council delivering all council services to communities in the county.
You can find out more on the New Somerset Council website. You will also find some frequently asked questions to help you understand how the changes relate to tenants of Somerset West and Taunton Council.
There are many ways to ensure your views are heard. You can contact a member of our joint tenant steering group contact housingperformance@somersetwestandtaunton.gov.uk or join the customer panel for the new council. Please do take the opportunity to have your say.
